ADSL uses the national telephone network to provide access to broadband. As about 99% of the country can get broadband over ADSL this is the technology preferred by the majority of ISPs.

As well as being much faster than dial up, broadband allows you to use your phone line at the same time as surfing the internet. And if you buy or sign up to a deal with a wireless router you can even run multiple pcs off the same broadband connection simultaneously.

Most broadband providers are still dependent on the BT network for connection into your home. But this is changing as more and more install their own equipment in BT exchanges, a process known as local loop unbundling.
